28mm Scale Log Canoe - sections with OpenLock

thingiverse

This is an updated version of the 28mm log canoe I shared earlier. It's designed to be highly modular, allowing you to build canoes of various lengths by combining multiple sections. The pieces fit seamlessly together using OpenLock clips; if you prefer a more permanent assembly, applying a bead of putty or green stuff along the joints before painting is recommended. However, I appreciate the flexibility of being able to disassemble and reconfigure them as needed. There are several files available that can be used to create four different types of canoe: * Large full hull * Large waterline * Small full hull * Small waterline Each type has its own unique characteristics, with separate bow, mid-section, and stern pieces. You can choose to build a single canoe or a double-prowed boat by combining multiple bow sections with no stern. Additionally, each canoe design features an alternative stern option with a transom. This is inspired by the bronze age boats from Must Farm that these canoes are loosely based on, which often had open backs with slots for a transom board. Some of these ancient vessels even featured actual transom boards in place, a remarkable feat considering they've been submerged for nearly 3,000 years.
